Having just given a talk to our university T&L committee about my project, at which I was asked “What is an information literate university?” I am interested to see that Sheila Corrall’s survey of strategic engagement with info lit in HE is now available. She found that “information literacy was represented in strategy documents at 75 institutions, including 51 examples in university-level strategies, though the types of strategy document varied significantly. IL was well represented in institutional strategies for information, student skills, and learning and teaching, but less evident in statements of graduate attributes and research strategies”.
